Abstract

There is no doubt that petroleum is essential to our way of life. It is known that petroleum is a nonrenewable source of vitality since petroleum generation all over the globe will not exceed the period of 30 years, and as a result, it will vanish one day in the future., thus it may be necessary to find out other sources of vitality in order to advance with ease. Investigators are now seeking for contemporary alternatives to petroleum.Biofuels are considered as the most environmentally safe fillers that may be employed. In this study, Egyptian Oil - induced and Safflower oils were obtained and converted into their contrasting biofuels using catalytic breaking with Catalysts that are diversified (Alumina and Montmorillonite - HCL)in varying proportions (0.2 percent, 0.4 percent, 0.6 percent, 0.8 percent & 1 percent). The following biofuel generation circumstances were investigated: catalyst type, catalyst proportion (percent), change time, and temperature. The obtained items' findings were equivalent to The United States Society for Quality (ASTM) Standards.
